Fresh beach Funtana Fishing Reports

Started at 7AM from port of Vrsar. Nice, calm and sunny morning. Stopped above shipwreck to catch some live bait and test some new sabiki tackles. Live mackerel was rigged on Sunrise Top Shot rod and after aprox. 20 minutes we had a bite. With this bad boy we had short but really strong fight. Fish was aprox. 70kg

06:00 Departure from port of Vrsar at 07:00 we were attached to fisher boat to take some more fresh sardines and some fresh mackerel for bait.10 minutes more of navigation and we were on special spot where one of the purse seiner fisher vessel spotted some tuna.We drop lines and there was one rod left to drop into the sea and then we heard BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPP TUNAAAAAAAAAAAAA It has pass only 15 minutes after we stop engines and start to chum.For first fish i took about 20 minutes to bring it close to the boat to make a nice video.After we make some breakfast a had some drink at around noon there we heard BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA again TUNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA This Was crazy, second tuna on the rod that day.This one was much stronger and it took about 45 minutes to take it close to the boat and to see it.That one as first one had more than 100 KG for sure.

There is no age or weight restriction ,it is only important that you are high enough to grab a handle and turn the reel ;) ;) ;) ;)

One more beautifull fishing day.A lot of fun with sabiki system for mackerel and other small predators.With so much live baits in the box it was almost impossible to came home withot at least one Blue fin tuna. We catch one smaller piece of aprox 45 kg.With tiagra 80wa reel it take only 20 min to exhaust fish strenght.

Fishing day started at 08:00.We went on one special possition which is about 14 miles away from shore.First task was to catch some live baits to raise chances of big bluefin attack.After few hours of chumming everybody jump on the sound of reel music.Big battle finished after about one hour and 90 kg bluefin became a new family member. We kept the fish.You can guess what was for dinner :) :) :) :) :) :)
